Hedera Hashgraph Platform

The Hedera Hashgraph Platform provides a new form of distributed consensus; a way for people who don't know or trust each other to securely collaborate and transact online without the need for a trusted intermediary. The platform is lightning fast, fair, and secure and, unlike some blockchain-based platforms, doesn’t require compute-heavy proof-of-work. Hedera enables and empowers developers to build an entirely new class of decentralized applications that were never before possible.

Hedera Hashgraph Council

The Hedera Hashgraph Council will be the governing body of the Hedera Hashgraph Platform. The council will consist of up to 39 leading organizations and enterprises in their respective fields, with membership designed to reflect a range of industries and geographies, to have highly respected brands and trusted market positions, and to encourage a wide variety of perspectives. The Governing Members will elect the Governing Board and also contribute expertise through subcommittee membership. Hedera’s governance terms ensure no single member will have control, and no small group of members will have undue influence over the body as a whole.

Build the future

For the first time you can build a whole new class of decentralized applications. With the Hedera Hashgraph distributed public ledger you can remove the need for costly intermediaries to leverage fair and efficient transactions – be it to create a new micropayments-based business model, tokenize home-ownership, or re-think a decentralized ride-sharing app. The Hedera Hashgraph Platform offers an easy to use SDK to build your application on a public network, powered by the speed and security of the hashgraph consensus algorithm.
